Is the obvious answer correct quiz
Here are a number of questions with 3 options for the correct answer, one of which may seem to be the obvious one to choose – but is it the right one? Your challenge is to guess which of the 3 possible answers is actually the correct one. No use of reference material or the internet of course to ensure fair play. Good luck.
REMEMBER - NO POSTS instead you PM me with your guesses any time up to midnight. If possible, please wait until you've completed all the guesses you want to make to avoid too many PMs and to make my job easier. So no hurry and it doesn't matter when you submit the answers because I'll be judging them solely on who has the most correct - and in the event of two or more being level it will be a tie. I hope this is clear and good luck. Tomorrow I’ll post the names of the top entries.
